Technical details
A blind SSRF vulnerability exists in IntelliJ IDEA's JSON Schema validation component, allowing attackers to trigger remote HTTP requests by crafting JSON files with remote schema references. The vulnerability requires user interaction (opening a malicious JSON file) in the IDE. No local code execution is gained, but the application can be manipulated to probe internal network resources or exfiltrate data via out-of-band channels.
